Garmin GMR Fantom 18”. 10PM Saturday night. Like I said the navigation for me is no problem the radar only enhances my situational awareness. The ability to see anything floating on the water most importantly other boats is in-beatable. It makes no difference how much experience you have driving back and forth on the lake if you can’t see what is around you on the water.
